Although the real games have yet to begin for Team USA, it comfortably acclimated to an Olympic-type atmosphere with an 86-72 win against Team Canada on Wednesday night. After facing an early 11-1 deficit, Team USA limited Team Canada to 33.8 percent shooting from the field on its way to victory.

A starting unit featuring Stephen Curry and LeBron James showed flashes of brilliance, but the reserves made the biggest impact. Anthony Davis had 10 points, 11 rebounds and four blocks off the bench, and Anthony Edwards finished with a game-high 13 points on 6-of-10 shooting.

Team USA coach Steve Kerr noted that the clash with Team Canada was a good learning experience after his group had only been able to practice together for a few days.

“You could see the rust from the offensive end, a lot of turnovers in that first half especially, but I love the defensive intensity and the work on the glass,” Kerr said. “So it was a good first effort.”

The next challenge for Team USA will be a matchup with Team Australia, which has a strong mix of NBA veterans (Matthew Dellavedova, Joe Ingles, Patty Mills) and young talent (Dyson Daniels, Josh Giddey, Josh Green).
